What if memory is not only electrical - but molecular?
In this new interlude, Dr. Juan Carlos Rey explores how experience, stress, and nurture inscribe themselves directly into the genome of the brain. Through the pioneering studies of Michael Meaney and Moshe Szyf, we learn that the nervous system is not a fixed circuit but a living manuscript - continuously edited by love, fear, and time.
From the first experiments at McGill University in the early 2000s that revealed maternal care could alter gene methylation in the hippocampus, to the recent findings that environmental enrichment can rewrite those very marks, this episode unveils a profound idea:
Join Dr. Rey in exploring how trauma leaves biochemical footprints, how healing may be an act of epigenetic revision, and how consciousness itself may be a story the genome keeps telling anew.
